[QUOTE="akheathen, post: 7163205, member: 629234"] make sure you don't have the channels crossed. if you have the negative of one voice coil on one channel and the positive on another, you are basically bridging one coil, and making the other fight with the amp circuits. that amp is basically 2 synced into push-pull (basically one side drives negative, and the other side drives positive, with the other 2 as basic "neutral" long story short- the amp is most likely just shot, and not worth the price to fix it, but since it still quasi-operates, try using 1 channel at a time (disconnect both the speakerwire and rca off one side at a time) another possibility is that the sub is blown. if you have an ohm meter, i would check that first. about the blue wire- the standard on aftermarket decks is, solid blue is remote turn on output (your amp) and blue/white is radio antenna, so it only turns on with the radio [/QUOTE]
